Only when you're loud
will they listen to you.
And if they are deaf
Then let them trace [with their fingers].
You revolt, create panic, fight for your vision.
What's appearance, what's only illusion?
You free yourself since you know all is lost otherwise.
Not for me, that's what you swore to yourself.
You have the power.
You have the power.
You are the revolution!
Against the current--
Go out on the street,
Collect your reward.
You are the revolution!
Against the current--
Sing your songs,
to hell with the Throne.
You won't play along, because to you the world seems deaf, mute and blind.
[you] reject it, stand against the wind.
You ask why and scream aloud what's tortured you for so long.
You are free; that's all that counts.
